where they dismounted； and were united with all the solemnities
that usually attend such divine operations。 They passed the day
in thanksgiving and great rejoicing； and on that evening they
visited their uncle； where many of their friends and acquaintances
had gathered to congratulate them in the field of untainted bliss。
The kind old gentleman met them in the yard： 〃Well；〃 said he； 〃I wish
I may die； Elfonzo； if you and Ambulinia haven't tied a knot with your
tongue that you can't untie with your teeth。 But come in； come in；
never mind； all is rightthe world still moves on； and no one has
fallen in this great battle。〃
Happy now is there lot！ Unmoved by misfortune； they live among the
fair beauties of the South。 Heaven spreads their peace and fame upon
the arch of the rainbow； and smiles propitiously at their triumph；
THROUGH THE TEARS OF THE STORM。
